New York Yankees vs Kansas City Royals July 24, 2010

The 1927 team is considered by many baseball historians as the best team of all time, with Ruth hitting his Olympian sixty home runs (which was more than any American League team hit that season) and Gehrig hitting forty-seven. Gehrig had more runs batted in: one-hundred seventy-five to one-hundred sixty-four. Huggins died suddenly in 1929 and the Yanks were derailed for a few years, returning to the Series and sweeping the Cubs in 1932 under new manager Joe McCarthy. Ruth was gone two years later, but the Yankee machine would now enter an era of dominance rarely matched in the game before or since.
